I have a TMID - 4 game in the head.

I've bounced a few ideas for it off of Tapper.

Seeking co - mod, for fleshing the game out and running purposes. probably helping with the balancing too, something I generally fail at

I've been spinning an idea around for a potential game. I could use someone with a bit more experience to bounce it off, and help with the balance. I swear, I learned from last time and it's no where near that crazy.

I'd be willing to do Buffy season 2 in the near future.

I still have a few ideas bouncing about. Nothing chaotic. But really need to sit down and flesh things out

I may end up stealing Blend's "alt-guessing" set up, and incorporate alt-find powers for everyone if I figure out how to balance it (staggered finds?) to make sure the game isn't terribly broken from the get-go.

I've got a likely quick M&P game with some little twists but I totally need someone to look at the setup and balance first, would you Venge?

Can be run next monday if nobody else hasn't got anything they want to run yet but as this might be the last game before the Christmas holiday break maybe something bigger would suit better?

If Vengy wants to play, I can take a look- i'm gonna be a tad swamped next two weeks, esp given how i'm working slower now due to my arm.

I've got an idea for a non-standard game I'd like to run. Is there someone that would be willing to help me hash out mechanics?

Looks like the front page is getting a bit out of date...make sure people fill in their games once they're run!
Don't look now, but I think there's something weird attached to the bottom of my posts.

Yeah, same. Every now and again when I'm running a game I'll go in add the games that haven't been added yet.

Put me down for a Sengoku chapter. It's time to do a Oda Nobunaga game.

It will be classic mafia, not faction.

It's been SEVEN YEARS since the first Sengoku game and you're finally getting to Nobunaga NOW? Are you sure you're going to finish this series in this lifetime, Shin? :D

Hey, in real history we're almost to the end. It basically went Oda - Hideyoshi - Tokugawa, so we're on the home stretch.

Yoi playin? This will be only like a 4 or 5 tmdi

There's going to be a new t.v. series on channel TNT called The Alienist, based off a crime novel by Caleb Carr.

Here is a link if you'd like to check it out.

https://en.m.wikiped...ki/The_Alienist

I think this might make the basis for a good mafia game. What's unique about an alienist as a crime detective is their use of psychology as a major tool in their discovery process.

In our Mafia games, we use psychology as our major tool as well. There's also a list of interesting characters that could be used.

The complexity of the game could be on the higher TMDI scale, if wanted, but it's definitely beyond my capability alone.

I wanted to put the idea out there in case someone had an epiphany on how to go about using the subject matter for a future game, and if so, I'd like to help.

As a psych major, this'd probably be right up my alley. If I still watched TV.

I have a few other long-term shelved projects (Warhammer 40k: part 2, in particular), but I might be interested in considering smth like this, in a potentially-not-super-distant-future.

Also, expect a proper OP update over teh New Year holiday break.
